After the D&C procedure, how do I deal with stomach cramps for three days?

Patient's question:

Hello, I have been experiencing stomach cramps for three days after the D&C procedure. What could be the reason? It feels like something is not flowing properly.

Doctor's answer:

After the D&C procedure, the uterus will contract, and abdominal pain is a normal phenomenon. There is no need to worry too much. A follow-up ultrasound is required one week after the procedure. In fact, under normal circumstances, any type of induced abortion can cause some damage to the patient. Therefore, patients should pay attention to post-procedure care and health maintenance. Patients undergoing induced abortion should take care of themselves, such as adjusting their diet appropriately, keeping warm, and avoiding getting cold.
